Barry Alonzo White's Obituary
Barry Alonzo White was born in Sheffield, Alabama on September 17, 1966 to Bessie White and Robert Goodloe. His parents relocated to Jackson, Michigan when he was 3 years old.
Barry was a wonderful father, not only to his children, but to all of his nieces and nephews, as well any other child that crossed his path. For anyone who knew him, they knew his love for grilling at family gatherings, fishing and spending time with his children.
Barry had a very colorful personality and humbleness. He always had a smile on his face and plenty of jokes to share. If ever a family member or friend needed him, he was always there.
On February 14, 2012, Barry experienced a life changing event when he was in a tragic snowmobile accident. Still, the Lord continued to bless us with his presence. As a result of his experience, Barry accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior and changed his whole life around while.
At the age of 51, Barry went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, December 9, 2017. He was preceded in death by his mother; Bessie B. White and one daughter; Yulonda White.
